Patrick Roy is considered by many to be the best goaltender in NHL history and is revered in Colorado for backstopping two of the franchise's three Stanley Cup titles.
Patrick Roy has been doing a great job in New York with the Islanders since his arrival. After taking over from Lane Lambert during the 2023-24 season, he managed to reach the playoffs.
The Dallas Stars played their home opener against the Eastern Conference’s own New York Islanders. Which meant they played a team they rarely see during a regular season – one with a fair handful of reliable goal-getters, at that.
Also, the Islanders will be good, despite what lazy talking heads will tell you. The first official night of the NHL season is in the books, and the Utah Hockey Club has joined the league with a victory over the Chicago Blackhawks.
Anaheim Ducks: Goaltender John Gibson will be out for three to six weeks after undergoing an emergency appendectomy surgery. Dan Rosen: Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin practiced yesterday and could be an option for tonight’s game.

The New York Islanders replaced former head coach Lane Lambert with Hall of Fame goaltender, Patrick Roy, in the middle of the 2023-24 season. Under Roy, the team played to a near-100-point pace, fighting their way into the playoffs before losing in Round 1 to the Carolina Hurricanes.
Patrick Roy enters a pivotal season with the New York Islanders. It looks like he’ll be the head coach for a while unless there’s a sudden collapse (which with the Islanders, isn’t out of the equation).
I believe the last time Patrick Roy put on goalie pads might have been the Alumni Game back in 2016 prior to the Stadium Series. Coaching the Avalanche at the time, he had to train for a few weeks to get back into the rhythm of playing net, even if it was a pretty meaningless game.
